The Ohio State offense came into its own with J.T. Barrett as starter

The captain made his first start of 2015. See how the offense performed with J.T. Barrett at the helm.

J.T. Barrett returned to form on Saturday night. The star of last season brought a threat of running from the quarterback position, tempo to the offense, a comfort with the skill players and a sense of stability and poise in the pocket (he completed 75 percent of his passes under pressure).

This does not mean that the storybook career of Cardale Jones will come to an abrupt end though, as Barrett carried the ball 11 times and had an injury scare on the night, which may force "12 gauge" back into action before the season ends.
